If you think most pro athletes are bad people in real life, you're ignorant.He’s a good person in real life which is rare among pro athletes.
"Rare." Lol

Probably that since it's Ogden, it's likely they're Latina, which means by default, they have to be REALLY SCARY.Being from Ogden myself, I actually don't have a clue what they say about Ogden girls. What do they say?
Basketball stuff aside, Mitchell loves it here and is loved by the community.You're a bit in denial on this. If (big if), Simmons learns how to shoot then you have a guy that comes close to LeBron's skill set. Even now he's a much bigger Jason Kidd which is pretty awesome.
The downside is he could become Blake Griffin if he loses a step and doesn't learn how to shoot consistently.

Not wanting Lillard on the Jazz would be ludicrous.
Thinking the Jazz can get Lillard would be ludicrous.
Guy I played ball with has worked in Weber's athletic department. Lillard's been nothing short of amazing as a person.

I never said athletes were bad people, but please keep inferring what hits home for you. I said he was a good person, which is indeed rare. the majority of us are "meh" or below, athletes included.

Ok, guy...
If Simmons learns to shoot is like saying if DM grows 6 inches. Guy has been in a gym his whole life... ain’t like he forgot to work on it.
Tony Parker and Jason Kidd got dramatically better at shooting through their careers. There have actually been lots of non-shooters who’ve learned to shoot at least a decent clip in their nba careers, so it isn’t a given he’ll be stuck like he is. I still prefer dm for this roster though.
Please, reiterate what you meant by "He’s a good person in real life which is rare among pro athletes" then...Please point out where I said athletes are bad people. There is a difference between what I said and what you inferred, and if you can’t delineate that, well, that’s just ignorant. Also, I’m not your guy, buddy.

Karl Malone would be a better example of improving shooting that Simmon's could follow. For his sake hopefully he had Malone's work ethic to become a decent shooter.
Malone couldn't shoot free throws and had no jump shot coming into the NBA.
Please, reiterate what you meant by "He’s a good person in real life which is rare among pro athletes" then...
Jason Kidd shot 70% from the free throw line and 27% from three as a rookie. He at least shot it because he thought he could make it...
Ben shot worse from the free throw line than Shaq did as a rookie.... once Shaq can shoot he will be dominant.
Ben is and will be great... I’m going to go ahead and predict he is never a good shooter outside of 15 feet.
